Chapter 12: Great Harvest

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The four fox demons sat up from the sofa and turned to look at the door.

A handsome uncle with an I-shaped mustache led a few people in from the door.

Feeling the strong threat from these uninvited guests, the fox monsters’ hearts sank.

Bing Yue stared at Xu Liushuang and smiled, “Please don’t take my little sister’s unintentional words to heart. If there’s anything we need to apologize for, I would like to apologize on behalf of my sister first.”

“Tsk, look, you’re so much like a human. I can’t even bear to make a move against her,” Xu Liushuang said to the people behind him with a smile.

Su Mo stood at the back. After looking over, he felt more or less relieved.

This was because of the four fox demons on the other side, two of them were at level 3, and the other two were at level 2.

On his side, one was level 4, three were level 3, and one was level 1 while watching the show.

In terms of pure strength, this was a completely one-sided battle.

In fact, Su Mo even suspected that Deacon Xu would be able to take care of all of the fox demons by himself.

“It’s a pity I didn’t bring any melon seeds or Coke,” Just as Su Mo was sighing, the situation suddenly changed.

The leading fox demon in the court dress kicked the sofa over, then the four fox demons retreated without hesitation.

When Xu Liushuang saw this, he sneered and his leg landed on the sofa.

With that, the leather sofa was thrown forward at an even faster speed than before.

Bing Yue, who was in charge of covering the rear, had a solemn expression on her face. Her arm was like a knife, and she cut the sofa open on the spot.

A series of exclamations immediately came from behind.

“The door is sealed, it can’t be opened!”

“I can’t even break the wall!”

“It’s not a problem with the door or the wall, it’s a magic item! They’ve sealed this place!”

Bing Yue’s expression abruptly changed.

Xu Liushuang touched the ring on his finger and said with a smile, “You’ve only just realized it now? It’s too late!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he pounced forward.

Zhang Zhenyu and Old Master Zhou followed closely behind.

Chu Qingwu whipped out the enchanted gun from her waist and stood behind, shooting and assisting.

“A lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit,” This was Su Mo’s greatest feeling as he watched the battle.

It only took two to three seconds before the two level 2 fox demons were killed on the spot.

One of them died under Chu Qingwu’s gunning techniques while the other had her head crushed by Old Master Zhou.

Seeing the bloody scene, Su Mo’s shock would probably last an entire year.

It was hard for him to imagine that the old man who looked like he was about to die could release such a powerful attack.

So this was the strength of a level three pugilist?

While the other two fox demons escaped upstairs as they were being chased by Xu Liushuang and Zhang Zhenyu, Su Mo quickly approached the two fox demons on the ground.

[Lifespan +1]

[Lifespan +1]

[Lifespan +1]

…

Seeing the constantly changing numbers on the interface, Su Mo only felt a sense of satisfaction.

By the time the two fox demons had turned into pus, his lifespan had jumped from 70 to 93.

“Getting enough lifespan to draw the lottery for twenty consecutive times, this is a great harvest! Looks like I should go to the battle sites more often in the future,” Just as Su Mo was thinking about this, he suddenly heard a shrill cry from upstairs.

His eyes lit up and he quickly ran up.

Soon, in the study on the second floor, he saw the familiar court dress beauty.

However, she was no longer all smiles like previously.

She was now lying on the ground with a large hole in her bust that could fit an earth globe.

The charred flesh around the wound made it clear that the hole had been caused by fire.

“From the looks of it, it should be Deacon Xu’s doing.”

Deacon Xu’s profession did not belong to the twelve official professions.

It was a special profession called the light-flame warlock.

He was a self-awakened Transcendent that hadn’t obtained his profession through the origin pearl.

According to Chu Qingwu, a light-flame warlock could only reach level 7 at most.

As for how he should proceed after level 7, it was very likely that he would have to figure it out himself.

The official organization only had complete routes for the 12 professions because those professions had been discovered and concluded by predecessors step by step.

Su Mo could only rejoice that he had not obtained a special profession in the beginning.

Otherwise, if the path to the later levels was suddenly cut off, it would be very difficult to continue even with the cultivation EXP books.

But then again, the combat power of the light-flame warlock was quite strong.

Not only could someone with the profession cause such a terrifying injury, but he could also use the landing points of sunlight to teleport.

It was really cool and practical.

“To be honest, I think I can teleport too,” Su Mo rubbed his chin and thought.

Currently, the instant sword allowed him to teleport 5.1 meters.

As long as he continued to level up his skills, he would be able to teleport six meters, seven meters, eight meters… Then, slash down with his sword.

In the future, he could even teleport over a thousand miles away!

“I’m really clever,” Su Mo praised himself for his wit.

His gaze moved from the pus of the court-dress fox demon on the ground and looked at his interface.

His lifespan had jumped from 93 to 130.

This fox demon had given him a total of 37 lifespan points.

It was probably the strongest demon he had ever encountered.

He had really got a huge harvest for free.

Before Su Mo had the time to recover from his joy, in the next second, accompanied by the crisp sound of bones breaking, a broken figure smashed through the carved wooden door and fell on the floor of the study.

Among the wood chips on the ground, Han Yue stood up with difficulty, her body twisted and covered in blood.

Looking at Xu Liushuang and the others who were walking in, she took out a black lotus flower the size of a wine cup as she shouted at the crowd, “Let me go, or I’ll detonate the black jade lotus right now!”

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the small black lotus.

Half of the lotus flower was missing, and the remaining half was full of cracks.

The flower was made of jade and emitted a dark light, giving off an eerie aura.

Xu Liushuang frowned slightly and found the situation tricky.

This was not the first time the black jade lotus had appeared.

In the written records of the Dawn Bureau, the lotus was a powerful magic item.

Even though it was damaged now, it still had considerable destructive power.

Most importantly, the black jade lotus was made from many poisonous materials.

Once it was detonated, all the poison in it would definitely be released.

Although he could use his teleportation skill to avoid it, it was a different story for his subordinates.

Not to mention, Su Mo was standing next to that demon.

Although Su Mo was a sword saint with a bright future, he was now only at level 1.

He definitely couldn’t avoid that deadly poison.

A thousand thoughts flashed through his mind in a second, and Xu Liushuang made his decision. He raised his hands and said innocently, “You just want to escape, so is there a need to use a move that will take you down with me? I’ll let you go, alright? I’ve already killed three anyway, and I’ve earned enough merit points. There’s no need for me to get injured here.”

With that, he removed the enchantment that sealed the villa, then took two steps back to show his sincerity.

Han Yue relaxed for a second.

At this moment, a brilliant sword light suddenly came from the side of her neck.
